The participants represented several different career stages: The Student, The Job Seeker, The IT Manager, and their progress was tracked via blogs, videos, and twitter at http://thecareerfactor.com. This week at TechEd, all 8 candidates were brought together for the first time, and sat down with me on the Edge stage to talk about their experience and what the training and certification resources have done for them. They also announced a new Career Factor contest - check out http//thecareerfactor.com for more info.In Fall of 2010, Microsoft Learning selected 8 candidates from around the world from a pool of applicants and provided them with resources for training and certification.

Helping IT Pros plan their careers, or getting in to the industry, is something I'm passionate about, so I think this conference is a brilliant idea.Ken does a great job of explaining it all to me in this interview, but in a nutshell, this is an online conference, and will have sessions running for 24 hours, so regardless of where in the world you are, or what else you have going that day, you should be able to drop in for at least a couple of sessions. Plus, you'll get access to recruiters from several major companies in the industry, including Microsoft. In addition to great technical content, like certification exam reviews, there are sessions on resume writing, interview tips, and all the 'soft' skills that we sometimes overlook. If you're not registered already, head on over tohttp://www.msregistration.com/msl and check out the agenda and get yourself registered. You can also keep up with the latest news about the conference from Microsoft Learning's blog, http://borntolearn.mslearn.net, or on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/MSCareerConference.The conference is a steal for $50, but the guys at MSL generously offered a discount for Edge viewers - just use promo code EDGE30 when you register for a 30% discount.See you there!When I heard about the Microsoft Certified Career Conference, I got really interested - so interested that I even submitted a session that I'll be presenting.
